The issue is that it reads bad to people that don't understand the tradeoff upside (3cc vs 4cc is a big deal) you get for not being able to get card advantage off it.

Shoulda gone for that green, but I can see why he'd get cut pack 3.

Those nights of drafting you never want to draft again.
Constantly having to mull, losing the dice against hyper aggro every time, getting screwed and flooded.
Went 1-2 with a deck that could easily have gone 3-0 and should have gone 2-1 at least. Removal no awkward curve, fliers only thing it lacked was a bit on the trick side.

Draft League pool:
I want to keep Scrapheap Scrounger, as I'm low on 2 drops. I was thinking of throwing in 1 swamp for it since everything in the deck is single colored cost aside from Aerial Responder. I also have a 2nd Sky Skiff in the board but don't think I need it.
Anyone have any thoughts?

You might want to google Brian Kibler.

I would personally remove the Inventor's Apprentice and the scrapheap scrounger for the second sky skiff and another salivating gremlins.
If you want to keep the scrounger, add a swamp, and I would still swap the apprentice for the skiff.
*woooosh*
I mean, I know Kibler primarily makes a living now by streaming Hearthstone (and Duelyst/Eternal) nowadays, and doesn't play in as many Magic tournaments as he used to. Is that the joke?

The joke is that the original post about Kibler was sarcasm.
Ahh, right, sarcasm on the Internet.
Anyway, glad to see Kibler won his last draft round. I'm always happy to root for him. His deck seems like a lot of fun, but on camera there didn't seem to be a lot of payoff for all the energy he was banking.
More importantly, having LSV on as a full-time commentator has increased my enjoyment immensely.
I'm sure he has his reasons, but I have no idea why BBD still lives in Roanoke after he got fired from SCG. That video basically made it clear that the only reason you would move there would be to work for SCG
He signed a fixed term lease right before they dropped him
Yup. It was bad. There is nothing in Roanoke except SCG. (I wonder if he'll get dragged up to NoVA like we finally got Shaheen to do.)

Oh, someone had a Turn 4 Emrakul.
I hope you bought Gearhulk at $5. Card was obviously stupid.
I would not be caught dead with a Collosus deck at a non-casual event.
Aetherworks Marvel.

IsleofCards still has Gearhulk in stock for under 9 if you need a set https://www.isleofcards.com/products/magic-the-gathering/kld-torrential-gearhulk

For the love of education the plural of colossus is colossi.
Also what the fuck is wrong with people bringing colossi to the PT, that card sucks.

Yeah, i'm confused as well. This isn't a PTQ winner or a HOFer who doesn't really test/pay attention anymore, this is a guy who is #9 on the leaderboard and part of a major testing team. He must have a reason for this

I played against a couple variations of that deck and after I had met a couple of the RB Vehicle deck I was maining 3 Dec in stones so theyou were very expensive clues.
The next 72-96 hours are when the cards will be the most expensive outside of a prerelease window.
In a month it's going to be very different
Prices are inflating like crazy. They'll be way down in a few months.

Is that vehicle deck 4 coloured?

It's registered as Mardu. Perhaps the blue dual lands are just for Painful Truths / Radiant Flames.
EDIT: That Unlicensed Disintegration.
EDIT: That tease about a crazy deck that we don't get to see yet.
